Service will streamline connectivity between
public and private 5G networks to provide enhanced, 24/7
connectivity for Industry 4.0 and enterprises
NEW
YORK, Feb. 26, 2024 /PRNewswire/
-- Kyndryl (NYSE: KD), the world's largest IT
infrastructure services provider, today announced the launch of a
unified, multi-IMSI SIM service designed to provide comprehensive,
expanded connectivity beyond the private LTE/5G connectivity
deployed by Kyndryl today across industrial environments to mobile
devices. The data only service will have the capability to reach
over 150 countries through global carriers, with the ability to
dynamically switch between private LTE/5G and public mobile
networks for optimal connectivity performance and cost
management.
For enterprises that rely on private LTE/5G networks to manage
mission-critical infrastructure, Kyndryl's unified SIM will provide
security-rich, reliable private IP network access to integral
services and applications, including IoT devices, machinery
tracking, and automated digital procedures on mobile devices
outside of the manufacturing plants. With performance and uptime
being of utmost importance, Kyndryl unified SIM will automatically
switch between private and public wireless networks in the event of
network failure.
Transcending beyond Industry 4.0, Kyndryl unified SIM will
benefit enterprises as they look to make corporate
applications and tools available anywhere-and-anytime, and across
all devices for today's hybrid workforce. Kyndryl's unified SIM
delivers data connectivity with advanced security capabilities for
business travelers and devices wherever they are, enabling secure
connectivity to the corporate network while on the move.
"Private networks have become a catalyst in driving digital
transformation and worker safety for the industrial sector.
Kyndryl's unified SIM expands the plethora of benefits from private
networks beyond the manufacturing floor to mobile devices and
employees on the go," said Paul
Savill, Global Practice Leader of Network and Edge Compute
at Kyndryl. "From the frontline worker to the business traveler,
the global accessibility of Kyndryl unified SIM, combined with the
integrated wireless technology capability provides greater
flexibility and security capabilities with enhanced coverage to the
networking services managed by Kyndryl today."
As organizations increasingly turn to SD-WAN/SASE to meet the
data demands of SaaS and cloud applications, Kyndryl can provide
end-to-end encryption to any public cloud for customers deploying
Kyndryl unified SIM. Customers can leverage Kyndryl managed
services and Kyndryl Bridge, the industry's first open-integration
technology services platform, to access and manage devices and
infrastructure from remote locations. The streamlined connectivity
offers customers the ability to reduce network redundancy, reduce
operational costs, and optimize network services with minimal
downtime.
